Red Dot Award: Communication Design 2017 – Last chance for “Latecomer”

Designers, agencies and companies from all over the world only have until 9 June 2017 to submit their projects for the international advertised Red Dot Award: Communication Design in 18 categories. A 24-member jury will evaluate every single contribution individually and award the Red Dot seal exclusively to those who convince with good design quality and creativity.

25 years of expertise in communication design
The Red Dot Award: Communication Design is celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2017. With its vast experience, the award finds the best achievements from more than 45 participating countries. Not only professionals but also up-and-coming talents can put their achievements to the test: As part of the Red Dot Award: Communication Design, the Red Dot: Junior Award is geared to upcoming designers (up to two years after they graduate).

Following the motto “In search of good design and creativity”, 24 internationally renowned design experts will examine all submissions live and in situ. The works are not compared directly against each other, and no preselection takes place. Only projects that win over the jury with their overall quality and creative achievement are awarded the Red Dot seal. Members commit to the Code of Honour, which states that they are not allowed to take part in the judging of entries with which they have been involved in any way, shape or form. In order to guarantee an impartial selection process, no juror is allowed to submit his or her own project or one on which they collaborated.

Award ceremony in Berlin
The winners of the Red Dot Award: Communication Design 2017 will be honoured at the Red Dot Gala in the Konzerthaus Berlin in Germany on 27 October in front of around 1,400 international guests. The winners of the Red Dot: Grand Prix and the Red Dot: Junior Prize will not be officially announced until the award ceremony. The international guests celebrate at the subsequent after-show party in the E-Werk Berlin. During the Designers’ Night, the exhibition “Design on Stage” presents the award-winning works.
